The effect of the cavity formation on the energy consumption characteristics of the agitated gas–liquid bioreactor

Detailed power consumption characteristics from experiments and simulations of gas–liquid stirred tanks with shear-thinning power-law liquids are presented. The motion of bubbles was investigated based on the Euler–Euler approach with a bubble cluster concept. The drag coefficient of bubbles with a...
